three-fifths of the outer webs of the secondaries are pure white 
to the shaft. In this respect it approaches L. hartlaubi 
(HeugL), but the differently-marked plumage of the upper 
parts, as well as the black rump and tail, serve to distinguish 
the latter species at a glance. Iris pale yellowish brown; 
bill dark; legs pale yellowish white. Total length about 
23 inches, oilmen 1*95, wing 13*8, tail 7*6, tarsus 5*1. 
The type is a male in the fullest adult plumage, and I 
think there can be no doubt that it represents a perfectly 
distinct species intermediate between L. melanogaster and 
L. hartlaubi.
